Resources and Commentary on Prepping in Suburbia
After a year or so of the site being down, we’re slowly relaunching it with all the old content, and writing new content. It’s been well over a year since I’ve done any prepping, and recently started again. Updates over the last 18 months are, Ms. Prepper is now Mrs. Prepper, and there’s the addition of Baby Prepper, too… I feel like it’s all new again, and I’m learning from scratch…
Review of 5‑Minute Microwave Canning
First, this is an interesting book… I 5‑Minute Microwave Canning to see if there was a shortcut to canning, and to help me understand if you could can/jar using a microwave. If so, what foods you can can/jar. My first disappointment was not with the book itself.…

I Am “SO” Out of Touch
It’s true… I spent the weekend with a friend in AZ close to Fort Hauchuca. Sierra Vista, AZ to be exact. This is a friend I met when we were in the 6th grade in middle school. We’ve known each other for about 27 years. One of my oldest friends. Now, to give you…
